Name: Millennia ScarlettAge: 15, born on the 19th of July 1993Hometown: Mauville City, Hoenn Region

Appearance: Millennia has lightly tanned skin, that contains a thin, white scar across her upper back. Her tremendously long brown locks flow down to her skinny waist. In front of her face lie two small plaits separated from the rest of her loose hair. When the sun shines bright enough, red highlights shine on her scalp, blinding but beautiful. Her shimmery crystal eyes are a strange mystic purple, and are not coloured that way because of contact lenses. It's just one of those strange things. Her old clothing consists of a white delicate skirt with embroidered flowers on it in a pale blue colour, the same colour as her undecorated short-sleeved T-shirt. The small shawl around her shoulders is white, making her skin seem a lot darker than it actually is around there. Her silky slippers are blue, also undecorated.

Personality: As she was once the 'odd one out' for being named weirdly and after a word, Millennia used to be quite upset and grey. She hated her parents for apparently naming her stupidly and for a stupid reason according to all the Valeries and Melanies and Annes at school. Now being older, she proudly presents herself, never shy and always willing to help. Every so often you'll say something stupid in her opinion and she'll flip. Get really, really angry. This is usually because her anger is stored inside of her while she's being nice, and it just needs to come out sometimes. If you are disloyal to her and break promises, it's likely she'll get back at you for a DEEP revenge. You'll end up regretting it bad.

Biography: Millennia, growing up in Mauville City, was never particularly entertained by anything, nor was she very entertaining herself. This was one of the reasons people teased her; because she laughed at everything corny yet never made anyone else laugh. Mauville was jazzy, large and a nice place to hang out, just beside the biking hill, forever having parties. For Millennia having fun like that was a mere dream. Her restricting mother disallowed her to go to the slot games, it being a form of gambling. She wasn't allowed on the biking hill in case she hurt herself on an old rented bike from Rydle's, the only place she could have gotten a bike from. And never, NEVER would she be able to play in the grass. Millennia's mother was afraid for her daughter's health and safety if she went near any Pokemon. This was the reason Millennia didn't leave on her Pokemon journey at the age of 10.

When she was eleven however, Wattson, a cheery fellow, noticed her glum face when she was on the street and asked what was wrong. She explained and upon hearing it, Wattson challenged her, almost teasingly, to a "sparky" battle, as he called it. This couldn't make Millennia feel any worse, having no Pokemon. Wattson recognized her thoughts immediately, and took her hand as he pulled her out of the city toward a large lake, with a bridge across it so one could reach a small island with a single building on it; the electricity plant. Millennia was worrying; what if her mother found out that she had been here? Well, certainly, she would kill her daughter. Wattson was unlocking the door as Millennia thought about her problems. No sooner had the pair stepped inside than a small cat-like blue thing zoomed towards Millennia, who panicked and closed her eyes. Wattson however, drew a Pokeball from his pocket and sent Magneton to stop it. It all happened very fast, it had to. The Pokemon fell to the ground after the attack, and was then recognizable as a Shinx. Shakily, the Pokemon stood up, vulnerable. Wattson pressed a small red-and-white ball into Millennia's palm, who assumed to throw it like her sort-of friend. She did so, willing the ball to close on the Shinx and stay that was until it was caught, as it did. Proving that beginner's luck exists.

In the coming year, Millennia's dream was to beat Wattson, but it was easier said than done. The Shinx was at a much lower level that most Pokemon around the area, and it kept getting defeated when she tried to train it. Deciding she needed a new Pokemon, Millennia broke her mother's rule again, but instead of going to the power plant again, she asked a fisherman if she could borrow his rod for a minute. She didn't know about type advantages and disadvantages then. The fisherman smiled and handed it to her, saying that it wasn't a great fish day that day. Millennia looked in his bucket before taking the rod. Only Magikarp, and even then a small amount. Then, facing the water, Millennia threw the rod into the water. A minute passed. And another. 10 minutes passed. And then, why then, a tug on the rod was felt in Millennia's hands. She pulled, but the bite was heavy. She tugged and tugged, but could not bring it up until the fisherman helped her. As the Pokemon detached itself from the rod it became evident that it was a little white seal, a Seel. It clapped and barked like a seal that any of us might know. Millennia smiled, thanked the fisherman and picked up the Pokemon; it didn't even snap at her.

After a couple weeks of training, Millennia couldn't resist having a try at the Gym, as she was confident. She entered, and Wattson greeted her and challenged her once again, except this time she obviously accepted. Sending out Seel was a big but unknown mistake to her. The first attack was Wattson's and he thrashed her Seel in one attack, making Millennia shriek. Shinx came next, but didn't do much better. The battle had lasted 5 minutes including the crying of Millennia's at the end. Wattson frowned and then told Millennia about Furoh. From what he said, Furoh was a good place for beginners to start out. Wattson even offered to send her there and pay the fare. Millennia smiled and nodded, looking forward to her adventure!

Starting Pokemon:Shinx ♂ lvl 9: Shinx is a boisterous little thing, always determined to get his own way. He is forever wanting to battle but unfortunately isn't very strong, so he doesn't last long. He is definitely Millennia's favourite Pokemon, even though she tries to distribute her loving evenly. Even though he's not very tough, he's TONS tougher than he looks.

Seel ♀ lvl 12: Seel tries hard at everything she does, often achieving so. She prefers to be elegant and a contest-enterer than a battler. Often she is praised by Millennia and it makes her overly proud.

Items: 2 Normal Potions, a spare Pokeball, 1 Antidote and 1 Paralyze Heal. And all the stuff that one needs on an adventure (food, blanket etc.)What is the biscuit's name?: Bertha. I shall never forget.Other Notes: Millennia doesn't know much about battling but tries her best, like her Seel. The only Pokemon she has ever beaten are wild ones, she has never beaten another trainer before.

Edits:Upped levels of Shinx and Seel by +3 and +5 respectively. Total of 8. Added trainer sprite.
